Wow, after the dissapointing Kotobukiya Uesagi Kenshin and Senhime (especially after Alter's Senhime) I told myself that I was not going to bother with Kotobukiya's Lance figures.
And now they come up with this.
I'll most probably wait and see on this one, but it definitively looks like a better effort. Something I noticed is that the sculptor of each Kotobukiya figure is a different person, so that may be related to the inconsistent results.

The Kotobukiya Uesugi Kenshin isn't that bad, though I do agree the face is a bit off. At least the pose is very dynamic.
This Yamamoto figure though... pics of the actual production figure are up on the www.1999.co.jp site. It looks to quite accurate to the prototype.
This kind of pose reminds me of Alter's Yoko Littner figure - strong pose and facial expression, clean details and dynamic elements like the swirling hair. My collection has been hurting for a really good archer figure, so this one is already pre-ordered!
